■Timing and Results Inquiry:

(1)

Chip timing service will be provided for competitive runners in this event. Participants must collect their bib number and timing chip during pre-race material pickup and attach the chip to the back of the bib. Do not attempt to remove it (or reattach it). Please read the chip usage instructions in the event handbook carefully, or follow assistance from on-site staff. Official race results announced by the organizer shall prevail.

(2)

According to World Athletics Technical Rule 19.24.5, a runner’s start time is the gun time. The organizer will begin timing from the official gun start, and this recorded time will be used as the basis for ranking and result statistics.

(3)

Please do not wear two or more bibs, or exchange chip bibs with others, as this may cause the chip to fail and make results impossible to calculate. This is also a violation of the event competition rules. Offenders will be disqualified and their results will not be counted.

(4)

The timing chip is the basis for official timing. Please make sure to pass through all timing checkpoints. The organizer will not be responsible for missing results caused by failure to use the chip according to event regulations.

(5)

Participants should assess their own ability, avoid rushing or pushing ahead, demonstrate sportsmanship, and allow stronger runners to start first.

(6)

Please assemble and start at the designated time. The organizer reserves the right to disqualify participants and withhold results if they start early or more than 10 minutes after the official start time.

(7)

Within three days after the race, an electronic finisher certificate will be proactively emailed to participants who complete the race within the time limit. Please make sure to provide your email address accurately. Participants may also download it from the website. The result search and print function can help runners find their records more quickly, and certificates may also be downloaded and saved for future use.

(8)

No results will be provided for participants who do not reach the finish line within the time limit or who are missing any chip checkpoint time.

(9)
